I recall Winnpeg building a bridge over the Red River when I lived in that poophole. Took 2 years. I'm sure that it's not as big as the proposed bridge in QC, but 8 years seems excessive.

3.4 km main span, a second 470 m crossing, and a 3.5 km elevated highway
It's more then just one bridge, plus trying to work around the existing traffic there will probably double the construction time.

I think it's more like most contractors around the world are great at sucking money from government.

i understand that. and i'm not arguing that he's a poop skater. i was just saying that he's apparently been a poop skater his entire career and still been effective. sean, on the other hand, is just being an ass. it's what he does.

maybe this will help put it into perspective, Edmonton is building a new bridge across the N. Saskatchewan it is probably under 1 km and costs 130mil, it will take 3 years to build.

My main concern with the Habs demoting Leblanc is what this does for his status as hockey's reigning affirmative action hire.

Doubt that bridge has to support Murray though.

He built his reputation while he was playing with Dan Boyle. He lost a major step since then.
